Trailer recut suggests that Frozen’s Elsa is a formidable villain
She may look like the Swiss Miss Instant Cocoa mascot and sing with the triumphant voice of Idina Menzel, but Elsa from Disney’s animated super-smash Frozen is not someone with whom to trifle. All things considered, this is a terrifying young woman with wide-ranging, potentially deadly super powers she cannot wholly control. Among supposedly sympathetic Disney characters, perhaps only Tinkerbell is more off-putting. To make matters even worse, Elsa spent years in near-total isolation, the madness and anger festering in her soul, waiting for the opportunity to be unleashed upon an unwitting world. Considering all that she had endured, it’s no wonder that she definitely did not want to build that fucking snowman, thanks all the same. This isn’t the life she chose, but it’s the life that chose her, and woe to anyone who gets in her way. Basically, Elsa is the equivalent of DC Comics’ Icemaiden or Killer Frost, except with show tunes at her disposal, which, if anything, just makes her more of a threat.
